When it is hard to love

When someone is always pouting, ruining plans with their actions and attitudes, What do you do?
Do what pleases God. What you feel peace about, and if you can't seem to find peace, get by yourself and pray. Ask God to show you what to do. Take a walk in the park while you are talking to God. Let Him help you. God knows what you have need of, but He wants us to ask him, to talk to him. God wants our fellowship with Him. He misses us when we don't pray, and talk to Him. The same way we get lonely and want companionship so does God.

We all have to deal with difficult people, it's how we handle the situation is that matters most. Do we act out and pout in response to their bad behavior, or do we try to walk in love despite our anger, hurt feelings, or whatever? It's hard to not lash out, and I know I have failed in this area many many times, but we can't give up when we do. That's when we pick ourselves up off the floor and try it again asking God to forgive us and to help us. God will help us if we allow Him to direct our path. He will show us the steps to take. Trust God, He knows what He's doing. :)
